I saw this story a few weeks back on the BBC, all about how a lot of people in Kosovo were bewildered by men going off to Syria to fight for ISIS as they're secular Muslims there. The one that I really felt pity for though was a mother whose son was kidnapped by his father and taken to Syria back in June, where the dad promptly abandoned him with some other jihad-loving families. I felt so very bad for her- I imagine family kidnapping is awful, and it's awful when your adult loved one decides to head to Syria, but can you imagine knowing your child is there? I think it would wreck me.

That said, thank goodness, the boy is now back in Kosovo after some secret operation by Turkish intelligence. After reading so many bad things from that corner of the world, I was happy to read something good like this for a change!
